  • Euganean Hills the Euganean Hills Are Located in the Veneto Region
    Euganean Hills The Euganean Hills are located in the Veneto region. They are often referred to as “sea cliffs” that stand proudly at the heart of the eastern part of the river Po Valley. This group of hills stands out on the south-westerly horizon of the province of Padua, at approx. 60 kilometres from Venice and on a clear day the clock tower in St. Mark's Square can be seen from the top of Mount Gemola. The Euganean Hills cover a total area of approx. 19,000 hectares. The perimeter of the area is 65 kilometres, with around one hundred hills which reach a maximum height of 604 meters asl, as in the case of Mount Venda. The area is made up of 15 municipalities areas and since 1989 they have been protected by the Euganean Hills Regional Park authority. The hills were formed by a series of volcanic eruptions. The first activity dates at about 43 million years ago, but it was only the second volcanic phase, about 35 million years ago, that gave the region its present shape. From the the lava cooled down rocks like trachyte, rhyolite, latite, and strands of basalt were formed. The climate The climate is milder than that of the surrounding plain, in winter the thermometer doesn't drop below zero as frequently and for as long as it does in the plain. In summer it is cooler and less humid then the lowlands. This explains how the hills with a southern exposure, bathed by direct sunlight, can easily support vegetation like olive trees, cypresses, laurels, and other species of Mediterranean flora.

  • 1 CHIOGGIA's FLEET FISHERY MIGRATION in the ADRIATIC SEA BETWEEN the 19TH and the 20TH CENTURIES*. Abstract Introduction Chio
    CHIOGGIA’S FLEET FISHERY MIGRATION IN THE ADRIATIC SEA BETWEEN THE 19TH AND THE 20TH CENTURIES*. Botter L., Giovanardi O., Raicevich S. ICRAM – Central Institute for Marine Research, Loc. Brondolo, 30015, Chioggia, Italy. Corresponding author: Lisa Botter, [email protected] *This research has been carried out as a part of a survey in the frame of history of Marine Animal Population (HMAP) of the Venetian Lagoon and the Northern Adriatic, directed by Prof. R. Gertwagen, Israel, who was also kind to read and comment on the paper. Abstract Chioggia’s fishing fleet represented historically (mainly in XIX century) one of the most important fleet in the whole Adriatic Sea. For many centuries fishermen belonging to this town were used to exploit several fishing grounds all over this area, migrating along its coastline according to fishing season and climate conditions. In this paper we describe the fishing activity of Chioggia’s fleet between the 19th and the early 20th centuries. Fishing fleet features such as type and number of fishing vessels, fishing gears and spatio-temporal distribution of the fishing activities will be presented along with a description of the main target species caught in different areas. The social-economic implications of such activity, such like conflicts with other fleets, will also be discussed. Introduction Chioggia is located in the southern part of the Venetian Lagoon, along the western shallow sandy coastline of the northernmost part of the Adriatic Sea. This city is connected to the sea by an inlet or “bocca di porto” of the port of Chioggia. Chioggia’s position has encouraged, in the past, salt and fishing activities.

  • Recreational Demand of the Euganean Hills Regional Park (Veneto – Italy) Tiziano Tempesta, Samer Arkilo
    Recreational demand of the Euganean Hills Regional Park (Veneto – Italy) Tiziano Tempesta, Samer Arkilo Abstract — The Euganean Hills Regional Park is a hilly area of about 180 square kilometres that rises isolated in the central Veneto plain. It was established in 1989 but there is no data available on the number of visitors, and economic benefits for the local economy and for the visitors. With the aim of estimating visitor flow, a telephone survey was conducted. A sample of 309 families living on the Veneto and Emilia Romagna plain was interviewed. In order to estimate the visitors’ expenditure, a subsequent in-person survey was made on site. The research highlighted that the Park, with 168 visits per hectare per year, is probably the most frequently visited of the Veneto Region. Also the expenditure of the daily visitors (4.025 euros per hectare per year) and the recreational benefits (837 euros per hectare per year) are much greater than in the other Regional Parks of a similar size.
